SPRING EGG HUNT CHARGING CYCLE
Finished everything need to do? Got your Egg Master title in forums? Great job! With any time left, one option is to work on
getting a few golds and earning some nice loot in the process. He's how to run the infamous "SEH Egg Cycle"
1) Go to one of the stock piles (or donate for MM if you really want to.)
2) Use gouda (or area bait) so you get grow your MM stockpile.
3) Arm a charge charm, and let it go up to max.
4) When maxed, arm Eggstra charms for double loot, and hunt for eight hunts (so empty the High and Medium)
5) Repeat steps 3 & 4 until you run out of charms.
6) Check your inventory, you should have a couple low charge eggs, and a handful of medium and high charge eggs.
7) Smash them all. Low charge eggs are meh. Medium charge eggs give you more MM. High charge eggs give you Eggstra
Charms and SuperBrie.
8) Use the MM from the stockpiles and the High eggs to buy yourself some more Eggscavator Charge Charms.
(To have as equal an amount of charge charms and Eggstra charms. Purchase accordingly)
9) Go back to step 3 and repeat for days on end.
Part 6 -- Advanced Tactics
Only one new mouse, the Spring Sprig Mouse, which can be found in any stockpile using Marshmallow Monterey
SUBTITLE: Everything you ever wanted to know about Cartons but were afraid to ask.
Ok, step one is to find the darn thing. You can get a carton through one of five primary ways.
#1) Donate $5 USD cash.
#2) Find a gold egg (NOT the same as last years egg! If you have one from last year, no need to smash it. It won't work.)
#3) Find someone else with a carton and bribe your way on there.
#4) Buy one at any stockpile general store for 300 Marshmallow Monterey
#5) Check the Market Place
I'll start by listing some general guidelines to how the cartons work. Once you've gotten a carton (most common is by cracking open a freshly caught golden egg....be sure to have Eggstra charms armed so you get two of them!), it will add an unopened carton into your inventory.
(collectors take note, an unopened carton is inventory!)

Part 3 -- New Traps, Bases, Charms
The Egg Carton Interface....
As you can see in this pic, there is a lot going on in this little HUD. The left side shows the eggs you've caught. If you're REALLY good, you can see at a glance which one's you've caught, but most people like me will need to click on the "Carton Opened" button to get a look at the inside. It's helpful to know what eggs are in there, since you can't double-up at all.
You've also got a small window that shows how many empty egg cartons you have (I have zero).
There's an invite-viewing area, to see just how many friends you really have.
There's a little picture for each friend currently on the carton, plus you makes four.
Lastly, there's an egg-chat. Very similar to the map chats and team chats, however there's no pop-up to notify you when messages are posted, so you'll have to check it regularly if you plan to use it.

Part 5 -- Overall Mechanics
There's no "place" to go to. The whole point of the egg hunt is to scour all the nooks and crannies in the entire kingdom. We've been told the event will last roughly a month, until April 24th, approx midnight GMT
Part 7 -- Treasure Maps
Point of Frustration :
When adding friends, don't scroll left to right like you do for map invites. Instead, names are alphabetical by first name by COLUMN. Start with the left column, and scroll downwards.
| Arthur | George | Molly |
| Bill | Ginny | Percy |
| Charlie | Hermione | Ron |
| Fred | Hugo | Rose |
Part 4 -- New Potions, Loot, Collectibles
Here's one option you may want to use when looking for which eggs to hunt for fun and profit:
http://dbgames.info/mousehunt/faq/recommended-eggs
There are some people who have good success with the "Charge Cycle", which is a matter of using the MM cheese to gather charge charms, charging up the meter, and then maximizing the loot that way. While it's not as fully sustainable as it was in the first SEH event way back in 2012, it can still be a fun and profitable way to go about the event once you've got all the eggs you want.
Part 9 -- Feedback Friday Releases
Once you've got one in inventory, you can open it whenever you want, or wait and see if you get an invite from a friend. Each owner of a carton can add THREE friends to help fill the carton. Please note, once you join a carton there's no leaving it. So don't join or open one unless you plan to finish it.
The only guaranteed Egg Drop this year seems to be the AA. Everything else is a bit random.
Part 1 -- How to Get In
Monterey Cheese originated over 100 years ago in Monterey, California.
Some of the rules for how eggs work in the egg carton:
* When you, or anyone on the egg-team, find an egg drop, the game will first add the egg into your inventory. Yay! Next, as a completely separate step, the game will check the egg carton to see if the egg is in there already, or if it has to get skipped. If its ok, a bonus egg gets dropped into the carton.
* Once you're on a carton, there's no escape. You MUST finish it.
* Cartons are not maps. Open up a rainbow map, and an M400, get it all done at once, you multi-tasker you!
* Once the carton is full, you can crack all the eggs for some bonus loot. Sweet!
The Egg-Checking Rules....
- Original ten eggs don't get added (plaid, argyle, etc.)
- Random bonus hunt eggs don't get added (Relic hunter)
- Charge eggs don't get added
- If an egg is already there, it won't get added. (So no filling a carton with 10 AbsAco eggs.
- There are well over a hundred eggs to go collect. 14 New ones this year. Hunt in your normal areas to find eggs.
- OPTIONAL
- Travel to a stockpile, and collect Marshmallow Monterey (or donate)
- Hunt with MM in the stockpile area to find event charms which can give bonus loot/drop double eggs
- OPTIONAL
- New this year is a egg carton. Open a freshly caught Gold Egg to receive an empty carton. Open the carton to start filling it.
Nothing new this year, but to rehash the old charms....most of which can be bought in any stockpile charm shop.
Charge Charms: Used to fill the Charge Meter (see the mini game below.)
Eggstra Charm: Used to double your egg finding capability
Eggstra Charge Charm: Does both with one hunt!
